About Iglesia de San Pedro el Viejo
One of Madrid's oldest churches dating from the 14th century, features a distinctive Mudéjar-style brick tower that's a neighborhood landmark. The church represents some of the earliest medieval architecture remaining in Madrid, located in a historic plaza that garners significant attention during the San Pedro festivals in June.
Insider Tips
Visit the small plaza in front during evenings when locals gather, and notice the Arabic-influenced brickwork on the tower that predates most of Madrid's architecture.
